Notes
Hey guys, this is a worseman and this is the second part of the second arc in this crossover fanfiction.
I might rewrite this chapter by adding more scenes or changing it to suit every reader's taste because I kind of burned out from thinking out of the scene while I was halfway through this chapter. However, no worry because I managed to finish this but again, I might rewrite this as this was the first version, edition, or whatever you want to call it.
If you spot any grammar errors or spelling in this story, I will try my best to improve my story.

"This seems like a good place to settle down."
The Chaldea and Kamen Riders' group have followed Jeanne into a nearby forest to the slightly clear area surrounded by trees. Archer scanned around the area cautiously to check if it was safe although he placed no doubt on Jeanne's request while waiting for the food to be slowly cooked. They already established the camp for resting since the sun was coming down, making the blue sky into an almost blackish-orange night. Haruto threw a couple of sticks and twigs to the center of a makeshift campfire while he and everyone looked at the fire to feel the warmth.
Jeanne began to ask, "Please, before we begin, may I hear your names?"
"Hm?" Mashu blinked before turning to Ritsuka who nodded with approval and she then turned back to Jeanne to start introducing the group. "Understood, my name is Mashu Kyrielight, and this is Fujimaru Ritsuka, my master."
"Yo, Lancer. Cu Chulainn," Cu spoke up when looks fell upon him.
"Saber. Artoria Pendragon. It's pleasant to meet you, Ruler," Artortia greeted Jeanne.
"Archer," Archer introduced his class only, much to Jeanne's little disappointment.
Jeanne turned to the Kamen Riders. "Are you also a servant like Shouichi?"
"No, we're not, but we're Kamen Rider like he is," Takeru replied, pointing at Shouichi for reference. He then introduced himself, "Tenkuji Takeru. Kamen Rider Ghost."
"Soma Haruto. Kamen Rider Wizard," Haruto said his both full name and rider's name
"Nogami Ryotaro. Den-O," Ryotaro greeted nicely.
"Since I already introduced myself to Jeanne only, I will introduce myself: Tsugami Shouichi. Kamen Rider Agito," Shouichi introduced himself to the group.
"It's nice to meet you, Tsugami-San," Ritsuka greeted Shouichi.
"It's honestly pleasant to know each other's name but…" Jeanne turned to Ritsuka as she began to study him with a frown. "A Master? So there are Masters in this Holy Grail War? And with so many Servants and companions."
"Oh, no. I'm just a Demi-Servent, not like the others." Mashu said as she pointed to the rest of the group. "And no, it has nothing to do with the Holy Grail War."
"A Demi-What?" Shouichi asked.
"A Demi-Servant?" Jeanne asked.
"Not a true Heroic Spirit. Have you heard of us before?"
Jeanne shook her head in dejection. "I'm afraid not, I suppose we should clear up this confusion."
"This might be best for her since her ruler class was supposed to reveal the servant's true name," Archer explained, shocking everyone.
"I am indeed a Servant, my class is Ruler. I understand that, but…" Jeanne sighed, "A majority of information about the Holy Grail War that should be provided is missing. No, not just information. My stats have ranked down as well."
"That's not good," Ritsuka spoke out of his concern
"Indeed but not only have I lost the anti-Servant Command Spells, but I also can't even reveal their true names anymore, just like Archer had said. Luckily, this is my homeland, where I was born and raised. If nothing else, I still speak the language…"
"At least, we found a person who can speak French without not mistake," Cu joked, only received with Mashu's soft glare and both Artoria and Archer's sigh.
"That soldier earlier was saying that Jeanne D'Arc turned into a 'Dragon Witch'," Takeru spoke, catching everyone's attention.
"We were wondering the same thing, Jeanne-San?" Ritsuka asked Jeanne.
"...Having just materialized a few hours ago and meeting Shouichi, I'm not sure what's going on. It seems there's another Jeanne D'Arc in this world. A Jeanne that murdered King Charles VII of France and committed the slaughter at Orleans." Jeanne said, shocking everyone.
"That's impossible," Artoria said with bewilderment.
"Two same Servants in this same era? This is going to be a headache," Archer mused.
"Hmm… If we could access the Holy Grail War's records, there should be examples of simultaneous summons. Anyway, one thing's for sure. King Charles VII is dead, and Orleans has been occupied, which will symbolize the collapse of the nation of France." Roman said in a grave tone.
"Is it worse, Doctor?" Ritsuka asked worriedly.
Roman was about to explain, but Sougo beat him to it. "Ritsuka. In history, France was the first nation to declare human liberty and equality. Many countries followed suit. Delaying this by 100 years would stagnate civilization. Without progress, we might still be stuck in middle-ages."
"Wow, Sougo, I never knew that you're excellent at knowing the full history of France." Roman complimented with bewilderment at Sougo's history knowledge of France.
"Well, I did know the history of every country since I'm in middle school till now," Sougo replied embarrassingly.
Hearing Roman and Sougo's voices, Jeanne looked around in surprise while asking, "I just heard a voice... Is that Magecraft? What in the world are you all…?"
"Woah, you guys have a communicator or something?" asked Shouichi.
"Oh, that's right, we didn't introduce ourselves," Roman said after realizing their forgetful introduction before doing now. "Nice to meet you, Sain Jeene D'Arc and Tsugami Shouichi. My name is Romani Archaman. Everyone calls me Roman."
"Kiryu Sento. Kamen Rider Build."
"Tokiwa Sougo. Kamen Rider Zi-O."
"Call me Geiz. Kamen Rider Geiz."
"Eh, you use your name as a title?" asked Jeanne.
"It's a long time," Geiz simply replied.
"I see. You four tend to be dreamers!" Jeanne exclaimed in a happy tone, causing the four in Chaldea to be in confusion, except for Roman who took in entirely badly.
"What is this sense of defeat? She complimented us, but I'm not happy at all..." Roman said in confusion.
"Don't be down, Doctor. She didn't mean that way," Sougo replied, cheering Roman.
"Excuse me Mademoiselle Jeanne and Shouichi-San." Mashu called, attracting both Jeanne and Shouichi to turn to her. "It's our turn now. Our objective is the correction of this twisted history. We belong to an organization by the name of Chaldea…"
After Mashu's long explanation about the future, Jeanne was surprised except Shouichi who knew about it because Tsukasa explained the brief to him. She became disheartened and said, "I see, I understand now. To think that the world itself has been incinerated."
"Jeanne-San…" Ritsuka said softly with sadness, being worried for Jeanne.
"My worries were so trivial. But now, I-"
"Fou?" Fou looked at Jeanne with worry in its eyes.
"I'm an incomplete servant, and even I cannot trust 'myself.' The Jeanne D'Arc that occupied Orleans, not only that but those flying Dragons…"
"Wyverns," Archer corrected Jeanne to be not confused with it and Dragon.
"There is no way Wyverns existed in 15th century France and more importantly, he called you a "Dragon Witch"," said Mashu.
"Yes, I don't want to admit it, but the person controlling those dragons must be 'myself' I have no idea how she's controlling them. I never thought about such things during my life. Summoning Dragon is the highest form of Magecraft, let alone to have this many…" Jeanne replied with worries.
"I would think that summoning a creature like a dragon would require a large amount of mana, important key ingredients like dragon bone, and a lot of time," Haruto spoke out of his thoughts.
"You're right, Haruto. It's an impossible feat for modern mages. It should be difficult even for this era's Magecraft. That means… Fujimaru-Kun. If there's anything that could bend the rules like this." said Roman.
"Then it must be the work of the Holy Grail…" Ritsuka said, believing the identity of the cause.
"Exactly, it's only speculation, but these are no longer someone else's problem."
Mashu turned to Jeanne. "Mademoiselle Jeanne. What are you going to do from here?"
Jeanne sighed out and began to look intense as she declared. "The objective is clear; head to Orleans and take back the city. To do that, I must exterminate the Jeanne who stands in my way. The Lord didn't show the path, but I cannot turn my back on this!"
"Heh, Jeanne's back to normal as usual," Shouichi exclaimed with a smile
"Even alone, you will fight…." Mashu looked admiringly at Jeanne, "She is just like history says, everyone."
"Man, you're pretty enthusiastic about this, girly," Cu said dumbfoundedly.
"Pretty much different from Da Vinci," Ritsuka mumbled with a smile.
"Everyone. Our objective and Ms. Jeanne's are the same. I was thinking about our next course of action… How about we help her?" Mashu suggested it to everyone.
"Of course, I thought the same," Ritsuka agreed with Mashu before turning to the rest. "What about you guys?"
"Well, if the master wanted, I will gladly follow him despite it might be a little foolish," said Archer with a smirk.
"Whatever, as long as there are strong enemies to fight, I will do it," Cu grinned widely
"I will accept your suggestion, lady Mashu." Artoria nodded.
"We're all going to help you, Mashu. It doesn't matter if it would be impossible but we will gladly do it," Haruto said, agreeing while he and the Kamen Riders nodded.
"It's best to work together with Jeanne here. It's a rare honor to fight alongside a Saint and Savior and Kamen Rider!" exclaimed Roman.
"Good. Then once again, Mademoiselle Jeanne and Shouichi-San. We have our objectives, but we want to be of aid to you. Will you allow us to fight under your flag as your companions from now on?" Mashu asked both Jeanne and Shouichi.
"Oh… The pleasure will be all mine. I cannot possibly thank you enough," Jeanne replied with a smile, "Thank you, everyone. I thought I would be in this fight all alone."
"Since it's over, I believe the food is cooked," Archer said, pointing at the cooked food.
Artoria's eyes sparkled at the mention of food and she said happily, "Good."
"Don't get too gluttony, Saber, or else you will get fat," Cu chuckled, only receiving a powerful stomp on his foot by Artoria, fell to the ground, and grabbed his foot with both hands to ease the pain. "OW! What the hell?!"
"That's what you get for saying that to the girl," Archer said to remind Cu to remember while taking the lid off the pot.
"Oh, shut up!" Cu yelled before groaning by the pain in his stomped foot.
Watching at the display, Jeanne giggled a little as she found it to be a little entertainment although she felt a little bad for Cu. She smiled a little as she was glad to talk with someone friendly or not afraid of her due to being falsely accused even though she was the same person. Ritsuka spotted Jeanne's smile and felt relieved that she was not in distress or bothered by the fact that her other self was causing mass destruction across France. Nonetheless, he would enjoy the peaceful night until tomorrow morning where the group's mission continued.
1431
Orleans, France
In the morning, the group was now walking through the countryside, heading west for the town, La Charite, according to Jeanne's suggestion that it was the nearest town to their location and they agreed. Occasionally, they have to stop for a break to allow Ritsuka and the Kamen Riders to rest their legs before continuing including Mashu even though she was a demi-servant but she was still a human. While they were resting, Jeanne took an opportunity to have a talk with one of the Kamen Riders about her question about them. "Excuse me, Can I ask you some questions?"
"Sure, go ahead, Jeanne-San," Takeru replied, allowing Jeanne to ask.
"Well," Jeanne breathed out before asking, "I was wondering to ask you something; you four seem to have a similar aura to the Heroic Spirit Servant but at the same time, you're not. What are you and how do you acquire your power to become what you are now?"
"Well, we're Kamen Rider, a masked hero who fights for something and someone that we wished to protect and fight for like truth, love, justice or peace, Jeanne-San" Takeru answered with a full explanation of Kamen Rider in his own words. "We, normal humans, were either obtained or chose the power to fight for good."
"Eh? You four are just ordinary people?" Jeanne asked in both shock and disbelief. She originally thought that Kamen Rider was similar to the Heroic Servants like herself, Artoria, or Cu but to think that they turned out to be normal human beings. This was because she saw them fighting with wyvern back in the castle-like it was normal to them. She then asked another question. "How are you able to fight the wyvern easily?"
"We fought many kaijin in our entire life as Kamen Rider to protect people, whether they were strangers or friends, Jeanne-San," Takeru answered with a smile.
"Kaijin?"
"It means 'monster' in Japanese, Jeanne-San," explained Takeru. "This is why we can fight easily."
"I see even though I seem to understand a little," Jeanne mumbled before turning to Takeru with a smile, "I thank you for answering my question, Takeru."
"There's no need for you to thank me for explaining, Jeanne-San, but I'm glad to accept it."
"You're too kind, Takeru."
While Jeanne finished her conversation with Takeru, Ritsuka and Mashu were watching them while sitting on the log to rest.
"Jeanne seems to be a little happy by talking with Takeru, Master," said Mashu.
"Yeah, and I'm glad that she was in high spirits a bit despite this situation," Ritsuka replied with a smile before frowning sadly. "I cannot imagine how difficult she has been through since she was just summoned."
"Yes. Many people are really scared of her because of her other self," Mashu replied with a look of sympathy towards Jeanne.
[~~~~~]
"We should almost be there. If we can't get any information here, we'll have to move further inland," Jeanne spoke to the group from the front, Mashu and Ritsuka jogged up to walk next to her. She frowned as she continued, "But I'd rather avoid that as possible. If I am still uncertain about the forces we have cannot engage."
"You're cautious, aren't you?" asked Rituska.
Jeanne winced and shook her head. "No… I'm panicking quite a bit right." She sighed in sadness, "The other 'me' can't be in her right mind. What that monster will do by controlling the people…"
Rituska placed a hand on Jeanne's shoulder. "It's not you hurting them. You're here with us trying to save them."
Before Jeanne could reply, Roman's hologram appeared next to her, Ritsuka and Mashu. His face looked rather frazzled. "Guys! I'm detecting the Servant just ahead of your current path."
"What?" Haruto asked as he came to a stop next to them.
"Its location is at La Charite, which is your destination!" Roman replied, startling the group, before staring at something to his left and his eyes went wide. "Huh, it's getting further away. Oh no, I've lost it! It's too far away!"
"Doctor, where was it last detected in which part of the town?" asked Takeru.
Before Roman answered, Fou climbed atop Mashu's head and barked in the direction the group was heading. "Fou! Fou!"
"What's wrong, Fou?" Asked Ritsuka.
"Master! We need to move right now!" Artoria shouted, catching Ritsuka's attention while pointing in the direction where Fou was barking.
"Artoria?" Ritsuka asked before she swiftly looked at where she was pointing at and suddenly widened his eyes in shock to see the smoke rising in the distance where the La Charite was at. "The town!"
"Let's hurry, everyone!" Jeanne shouted as she sprinted to the town as fast as she could, followed by the group.
1431
Orleans, France
The town was in ruins with the demolished buildings, the flame still burning and few corpses were lying on the street as to whether they were occasionally burned or not. Jeanne was in a state of shock with her mortified face and Mashu was staring in horror at the devastation while the rest were scowled at the ruin.
"Doctor, life form detection-"
"It's no use..." Roman said with his somber voice. "There's nothing left…"
"It can't be…"
A loud bang alerted the group to a figure stumbling out of a collapsed house but they would not offer assistance as the figure was no longer alive.
"No… It can't be!" Jeanne gasped in horror while the Kamen Rider took out their transformation belt.
As the undead got to the group within a few feet of them, Artoria swiftly sliced its head off with her invisible sword and Its body fell to the ground. They heard more noise and turned to see more undead stumbling towards them with whatever weapons they could grasp.
"It seems like they've turned into the living dead," Archer said as he summoned his duel dagger, followed by Cu. He turned to Ritsuka and asked, "Master, What's your order?"
"Let's put these souls to rest," Ritsuka commanded as the servant nodded and immediately went to work to dispatch the undead.
The Kamen Riders began their transformation with some of them pulling out transformation trinkets. "Henshin!"

SWORD FORM
FLAME! PLEASE!
HII, HII, HII-HII-HII
LET'S GO! KAKUGO! GO-GO-GO-GHOST! GO! GO! GO! GO!
Shouichi, Ryotaro, Haruto, and Takeru transformed into Agito, Den-O, Wizard, and Ghost. They began to follow the servant to finish off the undead. The undead was a little threat to the group as they were being easily killed with their head chopped off or stab and slash throughout their entire body. However, the group heard a loud roaring sound and looked up to see the swarm of wyverns diving down to the ground.
"You gotta be kidding me," Cu said before thrusting through the undead's head.
"They're still here and they look like Wyverns," Mashu stated, observing the wyvern who unexpectedly attacked the undead and began to tear their rotten flesh to eat. She was disgusted by the sight and exclaimed, "Are they… Ugh, no way!"
"Stop it!" Jeanne shouted in anger as she charged towards the wyverns.
"Jeanne!" Artoria called before chasing after Jeanne to help her.
"I'm going!" Mashu said as she joined the fray with Artoria and Jeanne.
As the last of both wyverns and undead were slain, the group reconvened.
"That's the last of enemies," said Mashu.
"Good, everyone!" Ritsuka congratulated lightly with a nod before gasping in tiredness, "This is tiring."
Jeanne was however silent while standing still, worrying some of the group. Artoria walked towards Jeanne and asked with concern, "Jeanne, are you alright?"
Jeanne turned to Artoria. "I'm fine, Artoria, but…" She turned serious while gripping her flag pole tightly. "...It was most likely "me" who was behind this."
"We can't be sure about that," Mashu said, walking towards Jeanne and Artoria.
"Mashu's right, and we need solid evidence to…" Artoria was about to interject but Jeanne interrupted.
"No, I can tell. I am sure of it… There's just one thing I don't understand?" Jeanne said with a little confusion before voicing out her thoughts, "How much do you have to hate others to wreak such havoc? I just can't understand."
Suddenly, Roman's panicked voice shouted out of Ritsuka's communication wrist device. "Hold up! The servants that just left have reversed course! This isn't good. They must've realized you're here!"
"How many?" asked Ritsuka.
"This isn't good, five servants are heading towards your location fast!" Sento stated in eeriness.
"What? Are those Riders or something? We don't stand a chance against them! We must run!" Roman ordered, causing others to have different reactions.
Mashu was the first to object to Roman's order, "But…"
"We might be able to face them if we had the same numbers and even if you have a few Kamen Riders assisting you. There's no way you can fight an opponent that's several times stronger than you, is there?" Roman shouted at the group.
"Doctor is right. We can't be sure if we can defeat the servants all together but we can't take a risk because we're not certain that the enemy servants are either strong or powered by the grail," Archer explained, agreeing with Roman's order.
"Let's retreat, like any sane person! It says so in the 36 strategies of war!"
However, Jeanne stood firmly and silently as if she did not want to move. Mashu saw her action and shouted at her, "Jeanne! Servants are closing in -"
"I won't run. I must at least find out what their true intentions are!" Jeanne shouted back in confidence, shocking the group.
"Man, this girl has a death wish or what?" Cu mumbled quietly with a question.
"But!" Mashu tried to convince Jeanne.
"It's no use, we won't make it!" shouted Roman. "Everyone, just run!"
However, their escape was naught as the swarm of the wyvern arrived along with five servants and among them was Jeanne Alter. The first servant was a pale middle-aged man with long white hair dressed in black clothes holding a spear. The second servant was a woman with hair, wearing red and brown countess clothes and a mask covering her eyes. She held an iron staff whose upper part was equipped with a bat wing-shaped on both sides and a green gem in the middle. The third servant was a blonde-haired young man in his turquoise outfit with his hat and sword sheath on his right. The fourth and final was a young woman dressed as a saint and holding a cross-shaped staff.
Jeanne looked shocked, witnessing her other self, Jeanne Alter, in person while Den-O was weird out even though he did time travel so he asked surprisedly, "Is it just me or am I seeing double?"
"Well, we can only guess that the girl, who resembles Jeanne, is the Dragon Witch," Haruto replied before turning to the four servants. "But I'm not sure of the identity of the other four."
"This isn't good. That's too many of them," Agito said in an uneasy tone as he observed the enemies.
"Tell me about it, but it pumped me a little to fight," Cu replied as he readied his spear at them.
"Tch, you're always a battle-hungry dog," Archer said with a rude compliment, making Cu scowled, as he dematerialized his duel dagger and summoned his bow in his hand. His eyes began to focus on Jeanne Alter and the four servants to analyze their displaying skill.
"It doesn't matter right now as we're now in the enemy's presence," Artoria readied her invisible sword.
Jeanne Alter looked down at the group with an amused smile but most of all she focused on was Jeanne, "What on earth? Who knew… Who knew such a thing could happen?"
Jeanne remained shocked while Jeanne Alter continued to speak, "Could someone please pour some water on me? This is bad. It's awful. I think I'm going to lose it. It's so funny I might die from laughing! Take a look, Gilles! Look at that pathetic girl! What is she? A wimp? A mouse? A worm? Either way, they're all the same! So puny, I can't even muster any sympathy!" She breathed out and continued again. "Ah… truly- a country that could only cling to "me"...comparing them to mice is an insult to mice."
Artoria became a little furious as she gripped her sword tightly but she had to remain calm and not to fall to her taunt, Cu was not bothered as he desired to fight while protecting Ritsuka and the group from the enemy, and Archer lightly glared but while observing the enemy, not saying a single word. The rest of the group, on the other hand, remained both composed and vigilant towards the enemy.
"Hey, Gilles, don't you think so-" Jeanne Alter turned around but saw no one beside her. "Oh, I see. We didn't bring Gilles along."
"You… Who are you?" Jeanne asked after recovering from her shock.
"I could ask the same of you… Right, as a leader, let me answer that," Jeanne Alter replied before introducing herself. "I am Jeanne d'Arc. The saint devoted to France… the other "me."
Shocked at Jeanne Alter's Introduction, Jeanne began to deny her. "What? That's nonsense. You are no saint. Just as I am no saint. But, that is already a thing of the past." She then asked, "Most important - Why did you attack this town?"
"...Why, you ask? As the same Jeanne d'Arc, I thought you would understand. Are you stupid now that your alignment has changed? The reason I attacked this city? What a foolish question. It's obvious, isn't it?" Jeanne grinned, "It is for the sole purpose of destroying France. I am, after all, a Servant. Politically, economically, these methods take too long. Is it not better to simply physically crush everything?"
'Sound like someone throwing tantrums…' thought Archer.
"Such foolishness!" Jeanne shouted angrily.
Jeanne Alter scowled, "'Such foolishness?' The foolish ones are us, Jeanne d'Arc. Why did you want to save this country? Why did you want to bring salvation to these people?" All the while knowing that they are the ones who spit on and betrayed us!"
"That is-"
"I will be fooled no longer. I will be betrayed no longer. I no longer hear the voice of the Lord. The fact that I cannot hear his voice means the Lord no longer blesses this country. So, I will destroy it, under the Lord's grief. I will cut away all the bad seeds at the roots. As long as the human race exists, so will my hatred. I will remake this France into a land of the dead. That's how I will save this country. By the hands of the new Jeanne d'Arc, reborn through death. I suppose you could never understand. Always playing the saint. Impossible for a pretty little holy virgin who pretends not to see hatred and joy and is incapable of human growth!"
"I…" Jeanne was speechless by her other self's way of truth about her intention. She could not find any word to counter her and part of her slightly agreed with her.
"You're wrong! You have no right to destroy humanity despite knowing some of them are bad, and we won't let you do as you pleased," Ghost retorted at Jeanne Alter.
"You dare to voice out against me?" Jeanne Alter asked with her scowled face.
"No, What is human growth to Servants? If you're going to call it something, you would rank up as a Heroic Spirit," said Roman, standing side with Ghost.
"- There appears to be a noisy fly here. Should I kill it if it gets too annoying?"

"Wait, what-"
Suddenly, the flame ignited on the console table, alerting everyone in the control room. Roman, Sougo, Geiz, and Sento quickly moved away, not to get burned while Kota quickly rushed off to get a fire extinguisher, followed by Sougo who ran after him as he had to help to carry more than one extinguisher in case the flame was still burning.
"The console's on fire!" Roman exclaimed in shock, "That Servant can burn her enemies with just a glare?"

Orleans, France
Jeanne was silent until she spoke out to ask, "...Are you really "me"?"
"...I have played my part for you so clearly, yet you still have doubts?" Jeanne Alter questioned. "This rage is an ugly justice. It's not that you cannot understand it, you do not even have the will to try. But, I understand. Seeing you, I have realized all there is to the Heroic Spirit is myself. You are neither Ruler nor Jeanne d'Arc. You are nothing, but some leftover residue that I threw away."
Jeanne was shocked by Jeanne Alter's words.
"If you were the same existence and Class as I, then I should have felt something. But you are worthless. Nothing but a ghost, with a misguided effort to recreate history." Jeanne said. "Berserk Lancer, Berserk Assassin. Finish off that country girl. You're getting tired of small prey, aren't you? Rejoice, they are strong. Among all the Servants I summoned, your thirst for blood is the strongest. You exist to crush the brave. Devour them to your heart's content."
The long white-haired man and that countess woman, who was revealed to be Berserk Lancer and Berserker Assassin, walking towards the group with their weapon in their hands.
"Very well," Berserker Lancer acknowledged Jeanne Alter's order before turning to the group. "Now, I will have your blood."
"Here they come!" Den-O shouted as he readied his sword.
"Not so fast, 'my King'. I would like to partake of her flesh and blood, as well as her insides," said Berserker Assassin.
'Blood?' Ghost thoughts as he began to think of the identities of the two servants related to the word 'blood'.
"So greedy. And her soul? Who gets to take her soul?" asked Berserker Lancer
"There is no gain in taking her soul," Berserker Assassin replied. "Do you think honor or reputation can maintain my beauty?"
"Very Well. Then I shall take her soul. It's quite ironic though. I can understand her beauty, only after I have fallen as a blood-sucking devil."
"Yes. That is precisely why I cannot hold back my emotions. I will not forgive anything more beautiful than me. No, more than that -" Berserker Assassin said proudly. "The blood of those more beautiful than me can only elevate my beauty!"
Berserker Assassin set her eyes on the group and she continued, "Ah, how fun it is to crush such fresh fruit. I'll throw away the skin and just enjoy the juice. This is the privilege of being a Noble Of the Night. I'll squeeze every last drop out of you."
The group was disgusted by Berserker Assassin's proud words, seeing her as a twisted individual servant that they ever met. Ghost realized that he remembered the identities of two servants that were associated with blood as they were inspired to create fictional characters. He then called, "Everyone. I think I know their identities."
The group was surprised at Ghost's words as Mashu straightaway asked, "Tenkju-San, you know who they are?"
Ghost nodded, "Yes because they gave off an easy hint and keyword within their sentence and they were the source to create fictional characters and genre."
"Wait, Do you mean that..."
"Yes, They're the source to create a vampire genre," Ghost said, focusing on the two servants. "The man is Vlad Tepes lll, King and the greatest hero of Romania, also known as Lord Impaler. And the woman is Elizabeth Bathory, Blood Countess." Ghost deduced, shocking the group and the two servants.
"That's quite an excellent deduction to reveal their identities," Archer complimented Ghost, being impressed.
"So we are facing vampires, huh?" Den-O asked before groaning in annoyance, "You gotta be kidding me..."
"I'm impressed that you can easily reveal our name easily, but it doesn't matter that you're all going to die here," The Berserker Assassin, 'Elizabeth', said as she and the berserker lancer, Vlad, readied their weapons
"Look like we're going to fight," Cu grinned before turning to Ritsuka. "Oi, Master! Are we going to do this or not?"
Ritsuka swallowed his saliva down in his throat as he was honestly scared but he cannot afford to be in this state. He breathed out and became calm to look at the two enemy servants with a determined look. He then ordered bravely, "Saber. Archer. Focused on Vlad. Lancer and Ruler. Focused on Assassin as well."
"Got it, Master!" Cu accepted Ritsuka's order as he and the servants began to attack their specific target.
Wizard turned to Mashu. "Mashu. Stay with Ritsuka to protect him. Four of us are going to assist them now."
"Roger that, Soma-San!" Mashu acknowledged as she lifted her shield to protect Ritsuka from behind.
The Kamen Riders ran to assist the servants; Wizard and Den-O went with Artoria and Archer while Agito and Ghost went with Cu and Jeanne.
'Elizabeth' swung his staff, shooting a couple of dark energy balls at Cu's group, but Cu dodged with ease while Jeanne blocked with her flagpole. Agito hit his hip button and his form changed. His chest plate and left arm turned to blue and his left silver curved shoulder guard was replaced with a blue ball-shaped shoulder pad with a golden guard. A blue and golden iron stick emerged out of the middle of his belt and he grabbed it to pull it out. It extended into a polearm with a top and both golden blades swung out left and right. Kamen Rider Agito Storm Form.
Ghost switched his sword into a gun and began to shoot at 'Elizabeth' who dodged his firing. She then blocked Cu's spear upon seeing it falling onto her and knocked Cu away with her powerful swing. Agito swung his polearm to the right at her but she dodged it. He then clashed with her staff.

A spark created by the result of the clash between Artoria's sword and Vlad's spear. Both Artoria and Vlad exchanged blows with each other but Den-O joined in to assist her. Den-O ruthlessly swung his sword at Vlad, giving him no chance to attack and Artoria thrust her sword at him. However, Vlad stretched his hand, summoning a black spike shooting upward from the ground. They dodged by the spikes to move away from him. Archer fired his arrow at Vlad who unfortunately dodged his shot. Wizard replaced his ruby ring with a topaz ring, flipped a switch, and hovered his hand over his belt.
LAND PLEASE!
DODODO DODODON, DODODO DODODON!
A yellow magic circle appeared below Wizard's feet and moved up to change his form, changing his color from red to yellow and his helmet was now identical to the topaz ring. Kamen Rider Wizard Land Style. He switched his right ring to the ring with its sigil of a dragon with a shield-shaped gem in the middle of its body. He pulled the switch and hover it.
DEFEND PLEASE!
A slab of stones emerged up from the ground and blocked the incoming spike from heading towards Artoria and Den-O, giving them time to back away even further until it broke down.
"Thanks for saving, magic boy!" Den-O thanked Wizard with a nickname.
Archer jumped up, landed his left foot on the wall, and pushed and pulled himself to the right in mid-air. He aimed his bow at Vlad and fired. His arrow went straight towards Vlad and exploded with dust. As the dust cleared, a demolished wall of black spike appeared and Vlad survived.
'Tch, he survived,' Archer thought with annoyance as he landed on his feet and pointed his bow at Vlad.

Gritting her teeth, 'Elizabeth' swung her staff across to hit Agito away, but Jeanne dashed past the staggered Agito and swung her flag pole towards her. 'Elizabeth' received the hit and stumbled backward. She then quickly recovered to continue the fight and swung her staff around, conjuring a wave of blood. Jeanne was forced to move back but Cu and Agito recklessly charged towards her when the wave disappeared. 'Elizabeth' unexpectedly summoned a golden-shaped bell with a praying woman design moving towards them with its door opening, revealing a sharp-pointed spike-covered entirely inside. They barely dodged to their sides to avoid being shrewd as it moved straight only while Jeanne charged towards 'Elizabeth' and blocked her attack when 'Elizabeth' tried to counter-attack. All of the sudden...
ORE OMEGA DRIVE!
Jeanne staggered 'Elizabeth' off by pushing her off with her weapon and jumped back. Losing her balance, 'Elizabeth' looked up to see Ghost moving down with his right foot towards her. She lifted her staff to her chest to block Ghost's kick but immediately flew backward when his kick made contact with it.

Wizard took his Defend ring off his finger and replaced it with another ring that has the sigil of a dragon with its drill on its bottom body. He flipped his belt's switch and hover it.
DRILL, PLEASE!
The yellow magic circle conjured below Wizard's feet and separated its two outer rings to middle and top, leaving the small circle behind. He stretched his arm out and spun around until, at high speed, he crossed his arm to his chest and turned himself into a drill. He then burrowed through the ground. While Vlad was distracted fighting with Artoria, Den-O, and Archer, he felt a trembling within the ground and behind him, it exploded, creating a cloud of dust. Wizard's kick swept the dust away and hit the side of Vlad's body.
Seeing an opportunity of Vlad lowering his guard due to Wizard's kick, Den-O quickly took out his pass and hovered over the middle of his belt.
FULL CHARGE!
Den-O's blade was covered in red energy and he turned his head to Artoria, who was also looking at him. He asked, "Are you ready, girly knight."
"I'm ready and stop calling me that horrible nickname," Artoria replied as she and Den-O began to focus on Vlad.
"Yeah, yeah."
Vlad gritted his teeth in pain and stumbled to the side but noticed Artioria and Den-O readied their attack towards him. He tried to move away but received an arrow to his knee to be immobilized. He looked at Archer, whose stoic cold look was shown, pointing his bow at him and scowled. Artoria and Den-O began to charge towards him with their sword-swinging back. Vlad quickly lifted his spear to block and Artoria and Den-O swung their swords towards him when they reached him. Their swords clashed with his spear, creating a shockwave, sending him to fly backward. His whole body crashed into the ground next to the downed 'Elizabeth'.
"I couldn't believe you couldn't fend off a bunch of men including a girl! I wonder if you felt sympathy for them!" 'Elizabeth shouted at Vlad. "Kindness doesn't suit you, it's not a very monster-like, Dracul."
"I'm extremely displeased at you for saying that name," Vlad growled with a disappointed tone as he disliked being called Dracul.
"What's wrong? I would rather be remembered by a bad name than not at all," 'Elizabeth said as she turned to the Chaldea group and Kamen Riders. She then continued, "Dread and despair faintly spiced with hope. The ones with the best cries are the little squirrels who think 'I can't escape.'"
"But by the end… You were driven to ruin by those who escaped," Vlad snarked. "Elisabeth Bathory, also known as Carmilla. How humorous your tragic end is."
Carmilla became antagonized by Vlad's words and retorted, "How boring, that's why I don't like your kind. Even as you're damned as a vampire. You still cling to your noble 'heart'."
"You mean to say that I cling to my faith even now?"
Vlad and Carmilla's bickering was causing Jeanne Alter to be irritated that they were doing so now during the battle against Jeanne and the group. She roared angrily, "Stop this instant!"
Vlad and Carmilla turned their head around to Jeanne Alter who continued, "I told you could freely, but do not forget who friend and foe is. Turn your animosity towards those little girls and boys now! Save your petty squabbles later!"
"Ah, you misunderstand, Master. I secretly idolize Count Vlad as a leader," Carmilla corrected, causing Vlad to be surprised.
"That's the first time I've heard of it. Comparing idolization with assassination," Vlad exclaimed uneasily.
The group was confused, watching the unraveling scene between Carmilia and Vlad. They were awkwardly silent until Den-O spoke out, "Did they seriously bicker in the middle of the fight?"
"Yes, they did," replied Archer, who looked disappointed.
"Wow, they're fighting amongst themselves." Roman said with a disappointed tone, "It's a bad work environment over there."
"They don't know the meaning of the word teamwork, huh?" Sento interjected.
"Do not let your guard down, Everyone. They still intend to kill us!" Mashu shouted as she readied her shield.
"Quite enjoyable."
Everyone was surprised when a mysterious male voice appeared out of nowhere. Jeanne Alter scowled at his familiar voice back from her castle and knew who he was. The voice continued, "Despite seeing the effort of Kamen Riders and Chaldea fighting against the vampire servants, the most interesting thing is that I like the philosophy between the Dragon Witch and the Saint. You surprised me a little, Dragon Witch."
"Show yourself, you damn fool!" Jeanne Alter shouted angrily.
Everyone soon noticed someone standing on the rooftop of the demolished building who was revealed to be the hooded man.
"I congratulated you, Kamen Riders, for arriving at this world to stop me," The hooded man congratulated Kamen Riders with his hand-clapping loudly.
This surprised Kamen Riders by the hooded man's revelation and Ghost questioned him in seriousness, "Are you responsible for increasing the effect of the singularities?"
"Yes, I am, Ghost," The hooded man answered. "But I won't give the reason why I did it."
"So, you won't give us a reason to beat your ass?!" Den-O threatened the hooded man with questions.
"Of course because you all have to find it on your own with the last master of Chaldea and his friends," The hooded man said, looking at Ritsuka and the group. He chuckled, "How is your former director, Fujimaru Ritsuka?"
Ritsuka and Mashu flinched at Olga's title as the hooded man continued, "I observed the Fuyuki Singularity see how it unfolded its destruction to my interest. I already knew it would fail when 'Saber' was defeated and Olga Marie Animusphere's almost demise by Lev."
Ritsuka gripped his fist and questioned, "You work with Lev?"
"I am. However, we're not friends at all but an acquaintance, 'business' partner, or sort of allies including Lev's King that I work with," replied the hooded man. "I however won't waste any more time talking with you." He then turned to Jeanne Alter. "I will give you a little assistance as I promised you back in your castle."
"I don't need your fucking help," Jeanne retorted, glaring at the hooded man.
"But you should, Dragon Witch. You will quickly lose your fight against Chaldea," The hood man said with a frown. "And I won't let this story end early."
'Story?' Ghost thought with his raised eyebrow.
The hooded man turned to the Kamen Riders and Chaldea group. "Since you want to know my identity eagerly, I will introduce myself," He grabbed the tip of his hood and pulled it down to reveal his face. "I'm Sin…" He raised his arm while his eyes moved to look at Jeanne Alter. "And here is my little assistance." His finger snapped.
Mashu's eyes caught something in the sky flying straight towards Ritsuka which revealed to be someone. She dashed in front of him and instantly raised her shield to protect him. Her shield was hit with the sound of a blade clashing with hers.
"Mashu!" Ritsuka called in concern.
"I'm alright, Master," Mashu replied, shrugging Ritsuka's eeriness. She raised her shield down to see the attacker but widened her eyes to see an unexpected thing that was not human: A black crow humanoid creature wielding a sword.
"What the…" Artoria asked in shock, witnessing it.
"What the hell is that?" Asked Cu as he pointed his spear at it.
"Lord," Agito replied as he readied his polearm.
Suddenly, a loud inhuman growl was heard and the Chaldea group and Kamen Riders turned to see a large crowd of stone-like imp humanoid creatures with their spear and ant-like humanoid creatures walking out from every direction with their menacing aura. Not only that, among the crowd, few humanoid creatures were much different as they walked at the front and they reassembled loosely mythology creature, animal, and insert.
"Phantom too," Wizard said as he summoned his magic circle and grabbed his sword out of it.
"How on earth did he bring the Kaijin to this world?!" asked Den-O as he readied his sword.
"These abomination creatures are these Kaijin?" Jeanne asked in shock, seeing the humanoid monsters in sight.
"Yes and they are Agito and Wizard's Kaijin," replied Ghost.
"Seems like we have to fight through!" Archer said as he summoned his duel dagger.
While the Chaldea group and Kamen Riders were ready to fight the crowd of Kaijin, Jeanne Alter was honestly impressed by Sin's unexpected trick of summoning Kaijin. She originally sent her remaining servants to finish them off after Camilia and Vlad had failed until he showed up to give her another different monster that did not belong to this world. However, she felt a shiver down her spine by his sort of introduction due to his little aura leaked out, which was mostly filled with maliciousness. Was he purposely giving out his aura by bits? She however dared not to question or test him as she might receive something worse than all of this. Nonetheless, she was glad to have assistance from him and hoped that she would succeed in exterminating the country once for all.
Sin, on the other hand, was smiling happily at the Chaldea group and Kamen Riders were surrounded by the Kaijins and hoping to see their demise if possible but knowing them, they might have a chance to escape. However, it does not matter to him at all because he was honestly not here to watch but to obtain.
'I will enjoy it till the end until I get what I want within the singularity.'
Extra Notes
I was having a hard time creating a name for my OC villain so I decided to name him 'Sin' and I added his power to summon the past enemies of the Kamen Riders besides his traveling dimension power. I tried hard to make him shudder in the mystery of what he was to the reader until I made him reveal his true identity in the future chapter. However, knowing some of the readers, they can easily find out what he was.
I added Kaijin because I believe that the combination of Kamen Riders and Servant can defeat or injure other Servants in less than a minute so I decided to even the odds to balance the fight.
I already planned to add more riders to this arc but minimal up to four but some riders were not always to be primary riders like Agito or Wizard but secondary or tertiary riders in the future chapter. I also already planned to add which riders suited in each singularity along with other singularities which were not one of the seven main, which some I created with our vision.
I want to confess: I already planned to create another new crossover story between Fate Grand Order and one of Pili shows, Thunderbolt Fantasy, because I watched their collaboration special on youtube. In addition, I added entire elements of the FGO Fanfiction Story written by GhostXavier, Fragment of Chaldea, in which I'm not sure if I get copyright struck for using without his/her permission or stealing. However, I didn't start to write at all because it's all in my head but I know how the few parts of my story will play out. I might write that new story sooner or later or I might forget all of that writing plan but I hope some writer will create this crossover story in the future.
If you all have a problem with it along with my story, I will try my best to rewrite it to suit your taste.
